CS: The Last Dance, a Dance That Leads to Professional Success

Chapter 22 Ghostly Slide and Crouch Spray!

"boom!"

2K slammed his fist on the table, making the keyboard bounce!
"No... how did they even fight this?! Huh?!"

At this moment, he transformed into a "high-voltage current," about to put immense pressure on his teammates.

"pause!"

EG's coach called a timeout almost at the same time that 2K went on a rampage.

EG played very smoothly in the first half.

He hardly called for any pauses, and used the remaining ones without hesitation—because he realized that if he didn't use them now, he might not have another chance to use them later.
"Hey! Man! Calm down!"

The coach first held down 2K, who was almost jumping up, and then asked, "In this round, the economy should have been eco-friendly, so why did you buy the AWP? Why the Desert Eagle with half armor?"

???

Are you questioning me?

Already frustrated by losing three straight points, 2K retorted, "Why? Because I want to win! I want to win this point! If I don't want to win, I might as well lie here like a piece of trash and wait to die! Is there a problem with that?!"

"Want to win?"

EG's coach also got angry.

Since the C9 group joined the team, similar arguments have never stopped, a fact that is well known even to EG fans in North America.

He countered sharply with a question:

"So, did you win this point?"

"Tell me, did you win?!"

"I……"

2K was speechless for a moment, his cheeks visibly flushed and burning.

The next second, realizing what had happened, he avoided mentioning the fact that he had been eliminated by Meng Lang with a single shot at the start of the game, and instead turned his attention to his teammates.

The voice was shrill with anger:
"I want to win! But how can we win with my teammates playing like this?!"

"I just don't understand! The other team clearly got shot in the body by CeRq's AWP! With that much health, even if the three of you only got hit twice! Just two shots! You could still win!"

"How could you miss every single shot?! Huh?!"

The three teammates were stunned by the barrage of angry rebukes.

RUSH, Brehze, and CeRq were initially taken aback, then a strange expression of frustration and disbelief appeared on their faces.

That scene... that figure holding an AK, swiping left and right on the screen, accompanied by the ultimate gun control and spraying!
The image of it resurfaced uncontrollably in their minds.

Is it their problem?
Is there something wrong with that guy on the other end?!

At the same time, in live stream room 6657.

The live stream showed a replay of Meng Lang's highlights from the previous round, from his initial aerial capture of the white car to his subsequent mid-to-long-range gun control and sweeping maneuvers!
Even after watching it again, many viewers in the live stream were still confused.

Of course, some viewers in the live chat raised questions.

"Dark's recoil control and spin were indeed terrifying, but the key question is why EG is so bad?"

"Exactly, three CTs and a Desert Eagle, and they couldn't even finish off a T with half health?"

"No! Why does it feel like Dark's recoil control during this spray is slipping? Am I just seeing things because I've been playing too much?"

"Dude, you're not alone! Watching the replay, I also felt like Dark was slipping around! How could he keep slipping while firing with such an unstable AK?"

Just then, the sounds of someone playing with the machine came through the noise-canceling headphones, tinged with an almost groaning admiration: "Brothers... I'm a little... unsure how to explain this..."

"This AK...this recoil control..."

"Pay close attention to the details of this Dark wave! Pay attention!"

"He wasn't just spraying bullets while holding down the left mouse button—he was spraying while simultaneously sliding left and right! That way, he was harder to hit."

"Some viewers commented that my Bison is harder to hit when I'm running and shooting."

"Haha, buddy, what you said makes perfect sense."

"But what's terrifying about Dark's shot is that he's using the AK, the hardest weapon to control in the entire game. In this crouch-slide-spraying style, the crosshair shakes even more violently, yet he's correcting the landing point of every single bullet! Every subtle movement is creating an advantage for the next shot!" "This kind of recoil control...it's simply unbeatable!"

"Dark's move combined excellent recoil control and movement, subverting our understanding and the rules of the game, which is why it felt so unfamiliar to us."

"The director just switched to a victim's perspective, and it's true! Dark in the victim's perspective is like a ghost! He's elusive and impossible to pinpoint! You can't use a Desert Eagle against him."

"The key is that if you miss, you won't have another chance to fire. Looking at this round, Dark's AK will punish everyone who misses."

"Seriously, I won't say any more, okay? Dark's AK is just too visually appealing!"

After the machine player gave this analysis, the live stream chat exploded!

A massive number of comments instantly flooded the screen:

"Holy crap! It seems that's really true!"

"I've observed that Dark's AK is indeed different from other riflemen. Shrimp Bro uses extreme pre-aiming; he fires first, then aims, and then controls the gun back!"

"You're telling me this gun-handling technique is done with a bandaged hand?"

"This is outrageous! I don't think Black was that good with rifles before, and his AK was even worse. Only his sniper rifle was passable."

"Do you understand sudden enlightenment? If not, practice more!"

"No, no, no, when you mention enlightenment, I immediately think of the guy with perfect enlightenment."

"Speaking of which, this Black Rifle is so powerful, why did EG give it to him back then?"

"Back then, Hei had just switched to rifles and hadn't mastered the skills yet, right?"

"Isn't the new commander also Chinese? Give him some time, show some consideration for your fellow countryman!"

"Don't make a fool of yourself, buddy. Banana people like 2K are saying, who the hell is your 'fellow countryman'?"

"."

The chat in the 6657 live stream room was flooded with comments.

Live from the Antwerp studio.

During the EG timeout, Little Li (Xiao Li Zi) turned to Meng Lang with a delighted expression and joked, "Bro, your AK is absolutely amazing! I'll give you AKs from now on! This feels like our strategy!"

This is true.

In the previous round, he circled around the CT spawn from bomb site A, intending to harass them, but instead he heard sporadic gunfire from AWP, Desert Eagle, and USP!
Then the AK fired!
The world instantly became quiet.

When they circled around to the back of the police station, all they saw were corpses strewn across the ground.

The planned tactics were naturally not used.

"Bro's AK barrel caught fire today."

Coach XTQZZZ's face was also filled with undisguised admiration and excitement. When the opposing team called a timeout, he immediately came over and gave Meng Lang a "shoulder massage," saying, "Well played! Play like this for the next point! Take it in one go!"

XTQZZZ has every reason to be excited.

No team wins because of one person.

Even celebrities won't do.

Often, the role of a star player is to rely on their individual skills to win crucial clutch situations or achieve multiple kills to secure a decisive victory when the team is on the verge of collapse.

Activate your teammates!
Shatter the opponent's confidence!
And what about Meng Lang?

He played three games in a row, and it can be said that he relied entirely on his own strength!
One point for each person!
They even scored three points in a row!
He racked up two pentakills and a quadra kill!

His personal KD has skyrocketed to 22/12!
This not only completely destroyed EG's high morale after their three-game winning streak at the start of the second half, but also acted like a shot in the arm, injecting a strong dose of energy into G2's pulse!
Moreover, Meng Lang is not G2's "star guy"!

to be honest,
He was just a temporary worker.

Now that the temporary workers have erupted like this, why doesn't your team's star player step up?
How can you be so shameless?

Hey Shrimp Bro, stop laughing, I'm talking about you!

And Ilya, stop firing the sniper rifle! It's time to show the enemy what you're made of!
